General Fund; FY2026 appropriation to Lincoln County for the purchase of emergency response equipment.
SB 2940 proposed appropriating $150,000 from Mississippi's General Fund to Lincoln County for the Lincoln County Sheriff's Office to purchase updated emergency response equipment during fiscal year 2026 (July 1, 2025-June 30, 2026). The bill would have provided state funding directly to cover the costs of this equipment purchase, with payments issued by the State Treasurer upon proper requisitions. The bill was referred to the Appropriations Committee but died there on February 26, 2025, and did not become law.
